Anything is possible, some things are just alot more practical than others. That particular swap would definitely be impractical.

However, a Chevy truck motor would drop right in, since it is the same as a Chevy car motor externally.

That would be a Chevy small block. Externally nearly identical to the V8 that came in these cars. It is close to a direct bolt-in as anything ever is.
